There has to be some kind of martial arts movie plot in here. Young man has shiny charizard stolen, trains for years to become a badass. Has final epic showdown with his attacker, who by this time is the dangerous head of a collectible card-game bootlegging ring.

Brings back memories and feelings of regret. I had that card and the entire original first edition set, and the jungle first edition set when they first came out. Probably worth more than it cost me by now... foolishly gave it to my sisters when I move. In under a year they sold the expensive ones and ruined the rest.

FACT- Eddie Bravo invented the triangle choke when he used it to tap out helio gracie at an ac/dc concert.

Lol. This isn't surprising. I was stabbed by a nail on my left lat(back) by my god brother when our parents gave us each 100 to spend on the cards and I pulled one holographic charizard, he being the bigger card fanatic, even did the you-gay-hoe stuff, snapped and tried to take it. I had no training then, was too young. This was when the age of pokemon was more addicting to the community than crack. And biker gangs had Gameboys.
